Opiates & Opioid Recovery

Program Design

NEMCA employs group therapy, medication management, and individual physician visits. By combining all of these treatments, patients relapse less and are better prepared for life after medication treatment.  Medication is an important tool to use on the path to recovery.

Patients must work hard and participate on many levels. Therefore, every patient participates in either one-on-one counseling, or in a monthly group therapy session led by a specialized counselor, physician, or addiction specialist. These sessions are essential for building the skills needed for successful recovery.

We respect that the decision to enter recovery is not an easy one and takes an enormous amount of work on your part. NEMCA supports you in this decision. We also know that we can only help patients who are ready to take responsibility for their recovery.

Patients will be given a drug screen at each session. Random pill counts and random drug screens are also used to track patient progress and compliance with program policies.

Once patients are established with NEMCA, the commitment is once a month for a one-hour session. During this hour, a patient will see the physician, participate in counseling, and undergo a drug screen.
